Digital Rockit (Official)

Digital Rockit is a collective made up of three different musical personalities who were brought together by a mutual love of fucked up party music. Way back in the mid-2000’s GForce was pioneering early warehouse raves and later became a partner at House Afrika records, one of Johannesburg’s premier record stores, and Fabio and Dogstarr would come in and snap up anything twisted and disco. Soon the trio realised that if G wasn’t secretly keeping a record for himself, he was selling it to the other two, and all three of them were playing these twisted tracks at the legendary Rustler’s Valley. And so, in 2005, the idea for Digital Rockit was conceived. Initially the project began as a way to move away from vinyl with all three performers using digital set ups consisting of midi controllers and synced Ableton Live platforms. However in the last few years the group has swung back to playing on a straight CDJ setup. One thing that hasn’t changed however is the sound. The trio says that they saw festivals as a platform for them to move beyond the confines of nightclub walls, and as the space opened up, so did the music. This means that people on the floor are hearing the combination of three different musical tastes coming together to create a sound that’s underground, hedonistic, and unmistakably Digital Rockit.
